Dubai invites dental professionals to 17 th UAE International Dental Conference and Arab Dental Exhibition
With participation by 28,000
dental professionals, the 2012
UAE International Dental Conference and Arab Dental Exhibition
(AEEDC) is the largest dental
meeting ever held in the MENA region. The 17th show, scheduled for
the next three days, is expected to
attract even more visitors, the organiser said.
According to Executive Chairman Dr Abdul Salam Al Madani,
over 1,000 dental equipment suppliers from 70 countries in the region and around the world have already registered for the industry
exhibition. To accommodate the increase in numbers, the exhibition
space in the Dubai World Trade
Center has been expanded this
year to over 30,000 square metres.
Increasing interest in the show by
companies operating in countries
outside the region is particularly
noteworthy, Al Madani said.
Last year, the show saw participation by slightly more than 900
companies. In addition to a number of pre-conference and specialty courses, AEEDC will be offering an extensive programme of
clinical presentations with a special symposium focusing on the
new field of rapid orthodontics,
as well as a full-day session on
Wednesday, 6 February, dedicated to different aspects of aesthetic dentistry, including the use
of dental CAD/CAM. Over 130 clin-
icians from around the globe will
be presenting the latest research
and treatment concepts in different fields of dentistry.
New concepts and ideas are also
expected to come out of the tenth
Global Scientific Dental Alliance
Meeting, which will again be held
in conjunction with the AEEDC this
year. Furthermore, oral health prevention and treatment concepts in
the region will be presented at the
GCC Preventive Dentistry Conference, chaired by Prof. Abdullah R.
Al Shammery, Dean of the Riyadh
Colleges of Dentistry and Pharmacy in Saudi Arabia.
providing continuing education in
the dental field through lectures,
advanced workshops, posters and
a specialised dental exhibition,
which all play a major role in dental education.”
AEEDC is currently recognised
as a Continuing Education Recognition Program provider by the
American Dental Association. Organised annually in cooperation
with the Dubai Health Authority,
the Dubai equivalent of a health
ministry, it is part of the World
Dental Exhibitions Alliance, an
international network of dental
trade shows having originated at
AEEDC Dubai in 2010 in order to
promote dental business throughout the world.
Last year, deals worth at least
US$1.7 billion were concluded
during the show, according to
Dr Al Madani.
“Keeping dental professionals
and related personnel updated is
one of the important issues that
have an impact on the quality of
the services provided to the public
by dental specialists,” commented
Conference Chairman Dr Nasser Al
Malik. “AEEDC Dubai has become

AEEDC Dubai 2013
The status of dentistry in the Emirates
The common perception of the
By Dr Donald J. Ferguson, Dubai
United Arab Emirates (UAE) is one
of growth, freshness and innovation. No discussion on the status of
dentistry in the Emirates would be
complete without offering a brief
insight into this unique context.
The UAE became independent in
1971 and is comprised of a federation of seven emirates with a cur-
rent population of approximately
7.2 to 7.6 million inhabitants. Along
with Qatar, another Gulf country, it
was one of the two fastest growing
(>10 per cent) populations in the
world between 2000 and 2010.
Dubai and Abu Dhabi are the
most populated emirates and
comprise about 67 per cent of the
UAE population — approximately
88 per cent of the population is
expatriate. Currently, there are
four colleges of dentistry in three
emirates. The first postgraduate
dentistry educational initiative to
operate in the UAE was the European University College, which
began offering its programmes in
2007. The Boston University InstiAD
tute for Dental Research and Education had offered academic programmes from 2008 but closed in
June 2012. The newest postgraduate facility in the UAE, the Dubai
School of Dental Medicine, began
operating this month.
Dental education in the Emirates, like the UAE federal monarchy, draws upon best practices primarily in Western countries. The
dental curriculum at the University of Sharjah was modelled on
that of the University of Adelaide
in Australia. Boston University
used its own American template to
compile postgraduate specialty
curricula. The European University College collaborates with
Swedish universities and is influenced by the American Dental Association accreditation guidelines,
while the postgraduate curricula
at Dubai School of Dental Medicine
is patterned after the University of
Edinburgh in Scotland.
The phenomenal growth witnessed in Dubai is matched by the
extraordinary efforts and proficiency demonstrated by the Commission for Academic Accreditation (CAA) established in 1999 by
the Ministry of Higher Education
and Scientific Research. In my
view, the CAA has established
world-class UAE educational standards based upon the best educational practices primarily in the
USA, Europe and Australia. These
best practices are represented in
the CAA Standards for Licensure
and Accreditation to which all UAE
education in dentistry is held accountable.
Besides being a career dental academic and administrator, I have
been an American citizen with the
perspective of a UAE expatriate for
nearly six years. In my opinion, the
status of dentistry in the Emirates
is impressive, but while the Emirates embodies growth, freshness
and innovation, there is significant
resistance to products of the UAE’s
own making. When you are in the
dental education business, this resistance is tangible, palpable and
real, and gets in the way of progress
and the betterment of all.
Whatever happens:
With W&H restoration and prosthetic instruments
you are always prepared.
Find us at AEEDC, booth no. 30.
During the past decade, the UAE
has been creating its own dental education identity by appropriately
retrofitting Emirates dental education standards to Western paradigms. But the hybrid product of doing so has not been widely accepted
in the UAE. Western education on
Arab soil is meant to represent the
same high standards expected in
the USA, Europe or Australia but it
appears that resistance to Western
dental education in the Emirates
will prevail for some time to come.
Dr Donald J. Ferguson is a professor and Dean of the European University College in Dubai, UAE. On
Wednesday, he will be presenting a
paper titled “Comparing and contrasting techniques to enhance orthodontic treatment efficiency”
during the Rapid Orthodontic Symposium that is part of this year’s
AEEDC scientific programme.

Contact allergies owing to gloves
A growing problem in dentistry
By Ben Adriaanse, DT Netherlands
In recent years, researchers
have noted a significant increase
in contact allergies to rubber additives among health care professionals. Although the cause of
this cannot be stated with certainty, experts believe that nitrile gloves, which are most commonly used in dental care today,
have contributed significantly.
In the 1980s, the use of medical gloves made of natural rubber latex was introduced into
dentistry. Owing to an alarming
number of allergic reactions
caused by certain proteins contained in latex, synthetic alternatives like nitrile and vinyl gloves
emerged shortly afterwards.
While they, like other alternatives, score significantly lower in
comfort and elasticity, nitrile
gloves are most commonly used
by dentists.
According to Michiel Paping,
director of Budev, a Dutch research and development com-
pany focused on natural rubber
latex allergens, type I allergic reactions, which are immediate reactions to allergens in a product,
are very rare nowadays owing to
improved quality standards and
production processes. Type IV reactions, however, are delayed reactions to the chemicals used in
the production process and are
more common and can arise in response to nitrile or vinyl . “In fact,
I think that synthetic rubbers
cause more contact allergies than
natural rubber latex,” he told
Dental Tribune Netherlands.
“It is not the raw, unprocessed
rubber that causes type IV allergic
contact eczema but the excipients
added during the manufacturing
process, such as vulcanisation accelerators, plasticisers, fillers, antioxidants and colourants. Excipients are present in both natural
and synthetic rubber gloves,” said
Prof. An Goossens, a contact allergy expert at KU Leuven’s Department of Dermatology in Belgium.
In 2010, a soft nitrile glove was
introduced that weighed only 2.5
to 3.5 g. The production lines were
shortened and the vulcanisation
was performed at lower temperatures to save costs and energy.
However, concerns have been
raised about the thinner gloves.
“Producing thinner gloves and
thereby being able to fit more
gloves in a shipment, saves costs
for raw materials and transport.
However, the production of such
a thin product and vulcanisation
at lower temperatures inevitably
requires extra and new chemicals. In addition, it is unavoidable
that thinner gloves will score
worse in strength and permeability,” said Paping after his company had tested various gloves
with regard to these properties.
Alongside the growing number of contact allergies in recent
years that are likely caused by
added chemicals or antimicrobial agents, Paping and his team
have observed an increase in al-
lergic reactions in daily practice.
“Recently, we have seen that the
professional body is becoming
alarmed. Despite this, I am concerned that the average dentist is
not aware of this matter,” he said.
“When health care professionals start working in practice,
they use the same glove out of
habit. When gloves are ordered,
the responsible person most often looks for the cheapest product on the market. As a result,
cheap gloves of unknown origin
are sometimes used in dental
care,” Paping said.
According to studies conducted in Finland and the
Netherlands, the quality of latex
gloves today is evolving and
most manufacturers have eradicated the proteins that can cause
allergies from their production.
However, currently there is insufficient data on the new generation of latex gloves but initial
studies have shown promising
results.
According to the experts, a
change of thinking and a policy on
rubber gloves based on neutral information is urgently needed. Currently, a number of inferior products on the market owing to the
fact that CE markings can be
awarded based on self-assessment in Europe, Paping said. He
recommended the implementation of new standards to replace
the CE marking in order to promote high-quality products that
are flexible, cause as little sensitisation as possible and keep permeability as low as possible.
Contact allergies caused by
gloves are a growing problem
and should not be underestimated, the experts concluded.
“With an annual global use of
more than 150 billion pieces, the
medical glove is something that
requires serious attention,” said
Paping. “It is a condition that can
threaten your career and you can
develop it suddenly,” he warned.

FDI Global Caries Initiative steps ahead
By Virginie Horn, Education and
Development Manager of the FDI
The Global Caries Initiative
(GCI), was launched by FDI World
Dental Federation in 2009, setting out an ambitious worldwide
agenda together with a profession-led call to action, whose goal
is “to improve oral health
through the implementation of a
new paradigm for managing den-
tal caries and its consequences,
one that is based on our current
knowledge of the disease process
and its prevention, so as to deliver optimal oral and thus general health and well being to all
peoples by 2020.”
FDI and its membership acknowledge that they have a singular role and responsibility in
terms of caries management and

leadership in any process of
change. Together, they are working to reduce the burden of caries
in the population worldwide. FDI
membership has, through the
Global Caries Initiative, reaffirmed the federation’s role as
the global representative body of
Dental Medicine and Oral Health.
The most significant achievement of GCI so far was the development of the FDI Caries Matrix*, which aims to facilitate the
dialogue between all stakeholders. The Caries Matrix acts as a
bridge between WHO Basic Methods (DMFT) and new approaches
to caries management, for example the International Caries Detection Assessment System (ICDAS),
creating a “middle ground”
which is workable for the current
clinical practice environment. It
engages clinical dental practice,
which has historically been reluctant to move away from the
curative / restorative model. It
recognises “enamel caries” or
white spots and “non cavitated
dentine lesions”, which were not
included within the traditional
model, but can now be managed,
through the Caries Matrix, by
preventive measures and tools.
The World Oral Health Forum
session organised in Hong Kong
during the FDI congress on
“Caries, a silent epidemic”
(www.fdiworldental.org/gci) provided another opportunity for experts to meet and discuss with a
panel of economists, public
health experts and other medical
professionals the way forward in
our fight against the most common oral health disease.
FDI has been working with
Dental Tribune International to
deliver a professional communication and education platform
(www.globalcariesinitiative.org)
to facilitate activities at a global
level and support the implementation of GCI at a national level by
FDI member dental associations.
More recently, the UNEP Minamata Convention on mercury is
creating a framework for a phase
down of dental amalgam, based
on the WHO and GCI concepts of
prevention, research into new
restorative materials and best
management practice.
FDI now wishes to implement
collective and individual dental
health promotion activities that
will help combat tooth decay at
all stages of life through its
worldwide network. This will
only be possible by informing
and mobilising all stakeholders
and partners, notably civil society, schools, teachers, educators
and the parents. With this broad
perspective, the GCI initiative
will develop further and move
closer to its ultimate goal.

US study suggests dentists cause implant failure
The indications and versatility
of dental implants have increased,
and so have complications. Researchers from the Loma Linda
University School of Dentistry in
the US have suggested that, regardless of patient risk factors
like bruxism, successful longterm outcomes significantly de-
pend on the experience of the clinician performing the procedure.
By reviewing the records of patients who had received full-arch
maxillary and/or mandibular
supported fixed complete dentures over a period of ten years,
the researchers found that 12 per
cent of implants failed when clinicians had less than five years of
experience in the field. Implants
were also twice as likely to fail if
the surgeon had performed less
than 50 implantations in his career, they report.
Other contributors to implant
failure were identified as being
related to the patient rather than
the implant. Almost every third
patient with diabetes or a history
of bruxism had experienced implant failure.
Other risk factors commonly
associated with implant failure
like the type of prosthesis used,
smoking or implant location were
found to have less impact on longterm success, according to the researchers. They stated that the absolute rate of success was found to
be 90 per cent.
Overall, the records of 50 patients treated with 297 implants
at the school were reviewed.

The use of robotics in dentistry
By Dr Steen Sindet-Pedersen, UAE
Following the developments in
industrial robot technology, robotics has found its way into the medical field and is used in a range of
surgical disciplines. The main purpose of the use of robots is to increase the precision, quality and
safety of surgical procedures. The
AD
first surgical robot was introduced
in 1992 but the technology had its
first major breakthrough when the
Da Vinci robot was approved by the
US Food and Drug Administration
(FDA) in 1997. Since then, it has
found widespread use in surgery.
A large number of indications
for this robot, which mainly con-
sists of a number of robotic arms
with video cameras, were approved by the FDA once the
safety and efficacy of the technology had been documented. It can
cut, clamp, coagulate and suture
using minimally invasive procedures. The robot is controlled by
a surgeon sitting in a control box
away from the patient, from
where he or she is able to control
any action of the robot based on
3-D images of the surgical field
inside the patient produced by
the video cameras, which can be
magnified several times. For example, Da Vinci robot surgery is
the most frequently used option
nowadays for prostatectomy in
the US.
Robotics is not yet used in dentistry even though all the necessary technologies have already
been developed and could easily
be adapted. Some of the technologies are already used in dentistry,
such as image-based simulation
of implant surgery followed by
the use of surgical guides, and
creating digital impressions of
preparations using an intra-oral
scanner, after which a milling device produces the restoration,
but we have not yet seen any robot able to prepare teeth for
crowns, inlays or bridges.
Such a robot would fundamentally be a dental drilling device coupled with a navigation device to determine the correct position of the
device in relation to the patient.
The robot would either be operated
directly by a dentist or be preprogrammed to perform its functions
based on imaging data (CT scan).
Finally, an intra-oral scanner
would be used to make digital impressions. This data would then
be transferred to the lab to produce temporary crowns or
bridges in a very short time using
a milling machine and to manufacture the final restorations in
much shorter time than with conventional procedures.
Robotics could offer dentistry
improved accuracy, predictability, safety, quality of care and
speed of treatment. One might
wonder why robots have not yet
been introduced to dentistry, as
the functions needed are relatively simple. An explanation
could be that robotics in dentistry is an example of a disruptive technology, meaning that the
current manufacturers of dental
equipment might fear a negative
effect on their current business
and the alienation of dentists, as
robots might be seen as a threat to
dental professionals.
Dr Steen Sindet-Pedersen is
Professor of Oral-Maxillofacial
Surgery at the European University College in Dubai. At AEEDC
2013, he will be presenting a paper
on robotics in dentistry on Tuesday morning in Hall B.

The eight components of a balanced smile
There are eight components
when it comes to the smile:
1 The lip line is the amount of
By Dr Roy Sabri, Lebanon
The anatomy of the smile is an integral part of modern dental practice. The various components that
make up a balanced smile should
be understood and patient’s smile
properly recorded and analysed so
that desirable aspects are maintained and unpleasant components addressed.
tooth exposure during a smile
or the height of the upper lip
relative to the maxillary central
incisors.
2 The smile arc is a hypothetical curved line drawn along the
edges of the four maxillary incisors that has to coincide or run
parallel with the curvature of
the inner border of the lower
lip. Ideally, the clinical crowns
of the maxillary incisors are
displayed between the upper
and lower lips.
3 The upper lip curvature is
the curve direction from the
central position to the corner of
the mouth upon smiling. It is a
muscle-driven position and can
be upward, straight or downward.
4 The lateral negative space is
the area between the buccal outline of the maxillary posterior
teeth and the corners of the
mouth in wide smiling.
5 Smile symmetry refers to the
relative symmetric placement of
the corners of the mouth in the
vertical plane. It is the coincidence of commissural and pupillary lines for example.
6 The occlusal line is the line
running from the tip of one canine to the other. From a distance, the occlusal line is parallel to the commissural line.
7 The dental components of the
smile relate to the size, shape,
texture and colour of teeth, as
well as their alignment, axial inclination, dental midline symmetry and arch form.
8 The gingival components relate to the colour, contour, texture and height of the gingiva.
The variability of tooth or gingival exposure upon smiling depends on lip length (philtrum vs.
commissural heights), the magnitude of lip elevation (7–8 mm,
hyper/hypomobile smile), the
vertical maxillary, clinical crown
(10 mm) and vertical dental
height, as well as crown inclination (incisor). The optimal vertical reference position for the
maxillary incisal edge in treatment planning is with relaxed
lips. A gingival smile should
never be treated to ideal at the
expense of under-exposing the
incisors in rest position. A mild
gingival display upon smiling is
within the female norm and can
be considered a sign of youth.
There is a gradual reduction in
the amount of maxillary central
incisor exposure with age. Thus,
a gummy smile will grow less obvious with time. A short lip is not
always associated with a high lip
line or gingival smile. There is
also a reduction in arch length
with time that leads to lower incisor crowding. With age, patients
become more concerned with
the aesthetics of their lower incisors.
These eight components of
the smile should be considered
not as rigid boundaries, but as
artistic guidelines or a smile
check-list to help dentists treat
patients, who are more highly
aware of smile aesthetics than
ever.
Dr Roy Sabri is a clinical associate at the American University
of Beirut Medical Center in
Lebanon. On Wednesday morning,
he will be presenting a paper during the aesthetic dentistry specialist meeting in Hall A.
Regenerative endodontics: Exploring new horizons
In the recent past, when biology
and biotechnology began to replace chemistry, health scientists
started looking for biological solutions to biological problems.
The tremendous advances in the
field of cellular and molecular biology indicate a paradigm shift
from simple mechanical care to
biologically based modalities for
medical and dental health professionals. The introduction of new
technologies and an information
explosion in tissue engenieering
have brightened the hopes of the
clinicians.
By Prof. Shobha Tandon, India
Although the current techniques offer success rates that are
relatively high for many condi-
tions, an ideal form of therapy
may consist of regenerative procedures in which diseased or
necrotic tissue is removed and replaced with healthy tissue to revitalise organs. In the first part of
this century, there has been an increase in understanding and experimentation with stem cells as a
primary tool in the expanding regenerative medicine revolution.
Regenerative endodontics is
one of the significant developments among these biological
approaches that will possibly involve a combination of disinfection and debridement of infected
root-canal systems to regenerate
apical tissue. Although the chal-
lenges of introducing these methods in the endodontic field are substantial, the potential benefits to
patients and the profession are
equally ground-breaking.
Regenerative endodontics can
be defined as biologically based
procedures designed to create or
deliver tissue to replace diseased,
missing or traumatised tissue of
the pulp–dentine complex. Two
concepts currently exist in regenerative endodontics: the first is the
active pursuit of pulp–dentine regeneration to implant or regrow
pulp, and the other is the formation of new living tissue from the
stem cells present in the root, allowing root development. The ob-

AEEDC Dubai 2013
Handpiece manufacturer NSK aims for global leadership
It is no secret that the years
since the global financial crisis
have not been very kind to
companies in Japan. First, the
recession slowed business investments significantly down,
then the negative effects of last
year’s tsunami and the massive destruction it wrought almost brought the world’s third
largest economy to a halt.
For NSK, one of the country’s
largest dental manufacturers, troubles in the home market are its
least concern because the company conducts most of its business
elsewhere. According to president
and CEO Eiichi Nakanishi, with
whom Dental Tribune International recently had the opportunity to speak at the company’s
headquarters in Tochigi, more
than 80 per cent of the company’s
revenues are now generated by its
operations outside of Japan.
In the last three years, NSK has
been performing particularly well
in mature markets such as Europe
and North America, where it
boosted its presence with the opening of its new headquarters near
Chicago last year, despite unfavourable conditions such as high
market saturation and the ongoing
decline of the yen against the dollar. Since 2009, Nakanishi has also
seen his company regaining its former market shares in Asia through
centralised distribution and aftersales support offered by its new
subsidiary in Singapore. Another
significant contributor has been
NSK’s European office in Germany,
which accounted for almost one
third of the 22.2 billion yen ($278
million) in sales the company reported in 2011. “That is why economic conditions in our home
market have little or no impact
on our overall business. We really think globally,” Nakanishi
explains. According to the 48year-old, who has run the company since 2000, one of the major
reasons for NSK’s strong market
position, even in established
markets, is its dedication to innovation and quality, combined
with the excellent after-sales
service it is able to provide to
customers in almost every country except North Korea. But this
hasn’t always been the case.
Founded in the 1930s, the company had a rough start and operations were completely halted
during World War II. Since the
production of dental handpieces
resumed in 1951, however, the
company has grown extensively
and now employs more than 700
people in its Japanese offices in
Tochigi and Tokyo.
NSK still produces most of the
precision parts in-house, which,
according to Nakanishi, is one of
the reasons that dentists now
identify the company with highquality products. “We employ
many good engineers and marketing people who help us to constantly improve our brand and
make it more attractive to dentists,” he says.
One of NSK ’s recent innovations, launched at last year’s IDS
in Cologne, for example, is the
Ti-Max Z series, a durable premium handpiece that is claimed
to have the smallest heads and
necks in the industry, as well as
an exceptionally low noise level
and virtually no vibration. The
Surgic Pro surgical micromotor
has also received much interest,
particularly by dental implant
surgeons, and is now distributed
alongside systems by major implant manufacturers. NSK asserts it pays close attention to
the needs of its customers, a philosophy that has resulted in
products such as the S-max pico,
which was developed solely for
the treatment of patients with
smaller mouths, such as children.
Moving into other markets is
conceivable but unlikely to happen anytime soon, Nakanishi
says. Even though his company
has begun to enter new areas in
the last decade with the launch
of instruments such as ultrasonic scalers and polishers, its
core business will remain dental
handpieces and other small-motor equipment.
“When it comes to handpieces,
we have produced more innovations than our competitors,” he
remarks. “Our goal is to become
the No. 1 company worldwide in
this segment.”

AEEDC DUBAI
With VDW.GOLD RECIPROC,
VDW Dental is presenting the
only endomotor with an integrated apex locator suited for
use with both RECIPROC and
conventional rotary NiTi systems at AEEDC Dubai 2013.
Leaving nothing to be desired
when it comes to all methods of
mechanical preparation, according to the German endo specialist, VDW.GOLD RECIPROC
was developed to perfectly control all important instrument
systems. In addition, the apex
locator can be used for separate

The simultaneous length control—featuring an auto-stop function when reaching the apex—
can be switched independently
from the drive mode used at
any time. In the specific reciprocating mode, one single setting controls all instruments of
the “RECIPROC one file endo”
system, independently of the
instrument size. According to
VDW, the new RECIPROC REVERSE serves as an indicator
for brushing motion to facilitate further penetration toward
the apex. While torque and
speed values for the most important rotary NiTi systems,
e.g. Mtwo, FlexMaster, ProTaper
are preprogrammed into the
device, all settings can be
changed individually. In addition, the motor offers proven
safety features such as acoustic
signals, torque control and
Auto-Stop-Reverse.
An ANA setting is supposed
to assist clinicians in the rotary preparation of difficult
canal anatomies. A maximum
of 15 torque and speed settings
for individual preparation sequences or new NiTi instruments can be stored via the
“Dr’s Choice” programme. For
the conventional Gates enlargers a setting point is available

award winning A-dec LED light
is now also available to existing
A-dec light users. Clinicians who
have a working flexarm on an Adec light manufactured after
1993 will be eligible for the upgrade, which is said to provide
20 per cent more luminance
AEEDC Dubai 2013
while consuming one-fifth of the
power needed for halogen bulbs,
the company said.
With an A-dec LED light, clinicians have a stunning white
light with a colour index of 90 at
5,000 K at their disposal which,
according to A-dec, allows them
to see colours more accurately
for a better diagnosis, reduces
shadowing and improves the
contrast. The cure-safe mode
provides brilliant yellow light
at 25,000 lux intensity, enabling
the dental team to work effectively without curing photo-initiated resins.
The A-dec LED light can be positioned with three axes of rotation and 540° of horizontal motion resulting in optimised economics for the entire dental team
and improved patient comfort.
An Auto On/Off function turns
the dental light on automatically
when the chair reaches the treatment position and turns it off in
the entry / exit position when
combined with the A-dec 500

ZOOM WHITESPEED

Annual World Dental Congress
28 to 31 August 2013 - Istanbul, Turkey
Bridging Continents for Global Oral Health
The whitening brand Zoom from
Discus Dental, now a part of
Philips Oral Healthcare, has provided more than four million
people a brighter, whiter smile.
Using advanced blue LED technology that emits the optimal
light spectrum, the first update
in Zoom light technology since
2006 is supposed to accelerate
and enhance whitening results
with no compromise to safety.
According to the company,
the Zoom WhiteSpeed system
delivers 40 per cent better results than a comparable nonlight enhanced whitening system. It also offers different intensity settings that allow dentists
to make adjustments for patients who may experience sensitivity during the whitening
process. In addition to enhanced
results and comfort for patients,
the new light also offers a range
of benefits for dental professionals, the company said. Besides a
refreshed design and improved
ergonomics with a new power
cord wrap, knots, counterweight
and larger casters for easier moving, the blue LED technology provides a significantly longer-lasting light source (50,000 hours)
and uses 41 per cent less energy
than previous models, reducing
the need to purchase replacement lights and thereby decreasing costs and offering a more environmentally-friendly option.
www.fdi2013istanbul.org
“Philips is dedicated to providing innovative solutions for
dental professionals that help
improve the experience and outcomes of their patients,” said
General Manager of Discus Dental, Frank McGillin. “Zoom WhiteSpeed helps people get their
teeth to their whitest white in approximately 45 minutes, and the
new variable settings allow dentists to customize treatments to
ensure optimal comfort.”

VITA ENAMIC
TEMREX PITCHES AT AEEDC
At AEEDC Dubai 2013, VITA
presents the first hybrid dental
ceramic in the world in which
both the dominant ceramic network structure as well as the
reinforcing polymer network
structure have been fully
merged. Owing to this dual
structure, the new VITA
ENAMIC material incorporates
the benefits of dental ceramics
as well as composite materials
in one product.
According to the German
company, materials science
tests show that besides improved material strength, VITA
ENAMIC also provides extraordinary elasticity even through
to integrated crack prevention.
In addition, it is said to offer significantly less brittleness than
pure dental ceramics as well as
abrasion behaviour that is superior to conventional composite materials and equivalent to
the abrasion behaviour of natural dentition.
Over the past several years, the
US dental restoratives specialist
Temrex has worked extensively
to develop an excellent dealer network throughout the Middle East
region. In addition, the company
has continuously added products
under the J R Rand and Copalite
brands to its extensive product
portfolio. All of these products in-
Owing to its high strength,
VITA said that the material is
extremely resistant to the
shear and compressive forces
of the stomatognathic system,
allowing the material to be
used for a variety of applications including the fabricating
of conventional anterior and
posterior inlays, onlays, veneers and crowns. In addition,
it can be used for minimally-invasive restorations such as
non-prep veneers or in areas
where space is limited.
The CAD/CAM blocks can be
processed with the Sirona
CEREC and inLab systems, according to the company. In comparison with pure ceramics,
milling can be completed more
quickly and with less tool wear.
VITA ENAMIC is also said to offer high reliability, greater precision, improved edge stability as
well as finer and more accurate
results compared to what is currently possible to do with conventional dental ceramics.
With the optional polishing
set from VITA, the material can
be also polished quickly.
Glazing using light polymerization as well as characterization using light-curing stains
can be performed as the light
refraction properties of VITA
ENAMIC provide a highly aesthetic overall result with a natural play of colours. According

Owing to a new formula that

READY2PROTECT
COPPERIONCEMENT
Copper is a fascinating material. While being an essential
nutrient for the human metabolism, it has proven toxic for
microorganisms like Streptococcus mutans. In dentistry, it
is used in dental amalgam
where it is known to be more
effective than silver.
Copperions in cements have
just recently become a topic for
research, for example, in in
vitro comparative investigations of Foley et al., which found
that Copperioncement demonstrates greater and greatest antibacterial activity against
Streptococcus mutans. Copperioncement also turned out to
be even more effective than
Glass Ionomer cement, particularly in the long term. Using
these unique properties of
copperion technology, Hoffmann’s Ready2Protect Copperioncement, a further development of the company’s
READY2MIX cements, is supposed to preserve vital teeth
and prevent root canal treatment. In contrast to classical
hand mixing, getting the right
proportion of powder and liquid has been improved owing to
a unique single dose system
consisting of two predosed
components, according to the
company. The consistency can
easily be adapted for luting and
lining according to the needs of
the dental practitioner.
Its solubility in water and
acids shows even better va lues than those required by
ISO 9917. Ready2Protect can
be used as a luting cement for
the conventional cementation
of inlays, onlays, crowns and
bridges made of different materials as well as as a filling material for dessiduous teeth. It
can also reduce the risk for
peri-implantitis when used for
final cementation on implants,
the company said. Furthermore, it also serves as a liner
under any permanent filling
material and has proven useful in a new minimal-invasive
treatment protocol developed
by Dr. Jean-Pierre Eudier from
Luxembourg using copperioncement and copal varnish to
preserve vital teeth.
